🙌🙌🙌 *high five!* Question????? What about a lull in writing? Like you get to a part that's slow and tbh boring but necessary to the whole plot? Do you write it in a more exciting way or just push through?
I know this wasnt addressed to me but from my own experience, if I cant figure out anything writing wise, I try to add more interesting things to the background, be it the environment, or another characters expressions changing in reaction to something silly, like maybe a mouse messing around or something. I know thats very specific, but hopefully it can give you some ideas!
Hydrangeyes I’m glad i could help! also another random tip i forgot to say is, it helps to make things seem more interesting if i try to convey whats going on through expressions and composition and body language before the text is added in, gestures can really change up what might seem dull, and theres always re-ordering the information that is revealed, like either the literal things or just the dialogue, because that can usually allow you to find a much more interesting way to do your scene instead! i’m sorry if that was all jumbled and didnt make sense!!
This is gonna be strange advice but perhaps look into speech writing, like as in debating, because in that you really have to learn how to make the dullest of crap interesting and Important and i’m certain its helped me with webcomics
@@ghost-pages Yeah, I agree. Sometimes when we create a comic, we often forget that just because it's a story, we don't have to narrate. Whatever you can utilize with the character design, facial expressions, or environmental design or even non pages with no dialogue at all helps way better than narrating a supposedly dry moment of on its own
Today i read a comic with ONLY cliffhangers. It was on webtoons and everytime the page would end on a cliffhanger :/ i tried to read it.. i did. But bOII IT GOT SO BORING I LEGIT HAD TO STOP BC I COULDNT SEE ANOTHER PAGE OF IT OMFG I HATE THE COMIC.
I'm doing a page a week, and unless it's the end of a specific story, I always end every page with something that leads into the next page. I don't know if they qualify as cliffhangers, but are you generally saying that I'm doing it wrong?
No no no no! Not at all silly! What he said was basically that it's okay not to do that. Doesn't mean that it's WRONG to do that. It's a balance you can learn to keep, if you want. If you think you make good cliffhangers or similar page-turners then go for it! Just be wary about over-doing it, but if not then experiment!
The first scenario is definitely something i'm doing because of the distant that takes place between the first events. Cause it's basically when my mains distant themselves from an ally who gives them an item telling them "you'll see me again after you meet my sister" and that's basically the cliffhanger of that cause you won't ever know who's their sister until the other guy comes it nor will the main characters
Im binging so many of your videos, theyre saving my life and making everything so much clearer for me
🙌🙌🙌 *high five!*

@@ghost-pages thanks, It does help!! Going about it like this actually works with what I'm trying to do for the script too!

That makes me wonder whether having build-up for a joke on one page and the punchline on the next one can be considered a cliffhanger.
